HC Deb 02 December 1993 vol 233 c677W
Mr. Anthony Coombs

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster how many social scientists are members of the Council for Science and Technology.

Mr. Waldegrave

No social scientists are members of the Council for Science and Technology. Council members were chosen in their personal capacities to provide a top-level overview of science and technology issues, rather than for expertise in specific areas, or as representatives of particular sectors.
